I guess what I am saying is when you have boys coming up like Atmosphere, J-5, Blacalicious and whatnot coming along good rap is still around, but will always evolve.

So true there is still good hip hop out there..

Psyche Origami - Commercial Property comes to mind right now.

[StereoInstaller1]

Gang Starr, De La Soul, Group Home, EPMD, Jeru the Damaja, KRS One, hell yeah all good stuff, they sure as hell don't make it like they used to.

See, for those of us who were in it WAY back in the day, the shit there IS the "new stuff" when "they stopped making good rap"...Cool J with "I can't live without my radio" and "Going Back To Cali", Run-DMC, BB's Licenced to ill, the D.O.C., the way more mainstream stuff like Young MC (STILL fucking dope, that kid ripped),Even Hammer, back when he was MC Hammer (yes, I have "Let's Get It Started") shit, I still have the copy of "Paid In Full" I bought in '87...

I guess what I am saying is when you have boys coming up like Atmosphere, J-5, Blacalicious and whatnot coming along good rap is still around, but will always evolve.

Want some history? Listen to the "first" (yeah right, Bessie Smith rapped in 1922, IMO) rap song: "Chocolate City" by Parliament

And yeah, people do bug out when I drive by dropping Tech or some NAS or whatever, like what the fuck is that old guy listening to that shit for!
